Looks like we have to make a new release: (0.9.80) with the firefox fix from #7040, thanks @kmk3

Currently:

• Firefox download from mozilla website: 147.0.4
• Arch: 147.0.3
• Fedora: 147.0.4

I would say we release it on Sunday March 1st. I'll push the 0.9.80 label on Saturday, Feb 28.

RELNOTES, small cleanups, whatever else comes up. Any other ideas, let me know.

No problem.

Saturday, Feb 28.

RELNOTES, small cleanups, whatever else comes up. Any other ideas, let me
know.

I still have one potential fix to send related to #7062, so if a tag is to be
added, could it be "0.9.80-rc1" instead of "0.9.80" for now?

Example:

git tag -a 0.9.80-rc1

@kmk3:

Sure, no problem. We can even wait a few days if you need it. I'll add 0.9.80-rc1 for now. Let me know when you are done.

[kmk3]

Hello, sorry for the delay.

Improved, fixed and added more items to the RELNOTES/README.

Seems good now.

Created a PR for the fix:

• modif: replace --keep-hostname with new --hostname-randomize #7095

It undoes randomizing the hostname by default and adds a new
--hostname-randomize command for doing that again, which could be added to
globals.local to effectively restore the current behavior.

Aside from that, I think only changing "0.9.79" and "0.9.80-rc1" to "0.9.80"
would be needed.

Cool! two or three days of testing on my side, and we go for a release!
